Re: Question about mixer and preamps

Will the Mackie preamps color the sound noticeably? They are not meant to color the sound; the marketing copy says they are "clean". I wouldn't worry about it. Well if you plug your keyboards into inputs 5-12 they won't go through any pre-amps as those are line-input channels. Channels 5-...

Re: Roger Linn teaches "Designing Physical Interfaces for Music"

Thanks for sharing this! I got to attend this course because I read about it here. Although there is also a fair amount of lectures, it's mainly a practical workshop.

And you should measure this with both ends of the cable disconnected. Inside the device, it's not uncommon for audio ground and chassis g...

Re: No Sound From Kurzweil K2500RS After SCSI2SD Install

For what it's worth, the Cadac Live 1 apparently comes in three sizes (8, 16 or 24 mono channels) and that picture shows the middle size. The smallest version is rack-mountable.
